Semi-analytical method for the dynamic analysis
Abstract
The paper presents a semi-analytical method for the study of a linear differential system with variable coefficients. The solution is given in terms of real positive integer powers; it is obtained in terms of independent functions which are computed numerically. The paper extended the semi-analytical method from [5] (for one differential equation only), to the study of a linear differential system. The differential system became a system with recurrent expressions between the coefficients of the power series in a matrix form. The strength of this method is shown by application to the dynamic analysis of typical rotor blades. The frequencies and mode shapes are calculated. The results are compared with theoretical results for the degenerate cases and with results obtained through other methods.
